South Sound National Night Out Events

Updated for 2019

There are fun events all around Pierce County and the greater South Sound for National Night Out on Tuesday, August 6th. I’m a bit late getting this up this year, but these are drop in events, and isn’t dropping over to say, “Hey,” to the neighbors what this is all about?

If you haven’t heard of National Night Out, this is an annual event meant to help prevent crime by getting neighbors out and meeting each other.

While there are still lots of block parties, there are now also many cities offering free, organized events that are not to be missed if your kids love vehicles, especially! Read on for a whole list by area, with links so you can confirm details!

Dacca Park 5:30-8:30 Join the Fife Police Department for a fun-filled evening full of food, games, music, prizes, and activities for all ages!
Activities will include a climbing wall, bouncy house, face painting, a virtual reality booth, raffle, and so much more!! Learn how to start a block watch in your neighborhood, watch a crime mapping demonstration, learn about local organizations and resources, and visit with your local officers.

My name is Erika, I work as the Neighborhood Programs Coordinator for the City of Auburn and your post was just brought to my attention by one of our residents. I just wanted to let everyone know that Auburn does participate in National Night Out each year. This year we had 56 registered events throughout the City and it just keeps getting bigger each year! Our registration process starts in June each year so if anyone lives in the Auburn area and would like to host an event, they should check out website, auburnwa.gov, in June of 2017! We also have a map each year that shows registered events so that people can pop into their neighborhood event as well!
